This Saturday hop on your bike and and support a great cause while enjoying a scenic ride through Windsor, sampling Ontario beers and nibbling on eats from local restaurants on the Bikes & Beers Cycling Tour.

The ride will be visiting Rino’s Kitchen, Motor Burger and the new Walkerville Brewery. Each location will host a brewer and participants will be provided with beer tastings and appetizers.

With Motor Burger launching their own craft brew in early June, participants on Bikes & Beers will be the first to try the Motor Craft-Ales brand!

The Bikes & Beers Cycling Tour includes a support guide, beer tastings, appetizers at restaurants and tours through some of the city’s historic neighbourhoods and landmarks. A support vehicle will also be on hand following riders through the streets of Windsor.

Proceeds from the tour benefit Returns for Leukemia, a fundraiser held each May by United Food & Commercial Workers (UFCW) Local 12R24 in partnership with The Beer Store to raise funds for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada (LLSC). On May 26th & 27th 2012, customers at The Beer Store are invited to donate all or a portion of their empty bottles (or cash), with 100% of the proceeds going directly to The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society of Canada.
